'''Dark Bones''' are enemies in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They are the most powerful type of [[Dry Bones]]. Instead of being pale gray with red shoes, they are indigo with purple shoes. Dark Bones are only found in the [[Palace of Shadow]], where they are seen twice, once in a corridor and yet again in [[Riddle Tower]]. A certain Dark Bones's pre-battle speech seems to indicate that it has been ordered to keep the Shadow Queen from awakening.
 
In battle, Dark Bones behave like regular Dry Bones, having the same moves and stats except much higher HP. After being defeated in both areas they appear in, they cannot be fought again.


'''Dark Bones''' are the most powerful type of [[Dry Bones]]. Instead of being a pale gray with red shoes, they are a bluish violet with purple shoes. Dark Bones are only found in the [[Palace of Shadow]] (where they are seen twice, once in a corridor and yet again in [[Riddle Tower]]) in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. [[Showstopper]], the special move, can actually destroy the Dark Bones.
In the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', the Wither Skeletons resemble Dark Bones.

It is unknown whether Dark Bones affiliate with [[Bowser]] or not, but they appear to be affiliated with the [[Shadow Queen]]. However, a certain Dark Bones's pre-battle speech seems to indicate that it has been ordered to keep the Shadow Queen from awakening.

*"''Those are some weird-colored bones. Very suspicious! ...But I feel like I've seen something like them before. I guess we're not gonna get much farther without checking them out, are we?''"


Dark Bones returns in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' as a playable character and alternate team player of [[Dry Bones]]. In challenge mode, he kidnaps [[Dixie Kong]] and battles [[Mario]] and Co.
